I thought I'd ease myself in after the Christmas break with finally writing up a post about my holiday to California last month!

I started off the trip by visiting San Francisco for two nights, The hotel I stayed in was amazing, the bed must have been the size of three single beds put together! I did a lot of shopping, saw the Golden Gate Bridge, and went to Fisherman's Wharf. I fell in love with San Francisco, it was so picturesque.

On one of the days whilst I was in Turkey we visited one of the nearby markets. Sure, you do get a fair bit of hassle from the locals trying to sell you stuff, but that's part of the charm! Every direction you looked there were 'genuine imitations' for sale,

But besides from all of the fake brands, there were plenty of beautiful scarfs, jewellery, bowls, and other Turkish souvenirs.
